Huertistas

This is a list of factions in the Mexican Revolution.

Revolutionary followers of Venustiano Carranza from 1913 to 1914, and thereafter the Government army from 1914 until his death in 1920. In 1915, an insurgent group known as the Seditionistas was formed and supported by the Carrancistas.

Title first used by all anti-Huerta forces before the 1914 breakaway of Pancho Villa following the defeat of Victoriano Huerta. Venustiano Carranza, the "First Chief" of the Revolution, attracted talented generals to his faction, most especially Alvaro Obregón. Obregón defeated Villa's División del Norte in the Battle of Celaya, ending Villa as a national force. The Constitutionalists were the winner faction of the Revolution, with Carranza becoming president of Mexico and the Mexican Constitution of 1917, drafted by this winning faction in a constitutional convention at Querétaro, was promulgated.

Joint name for Villistas and Zapatistas as supporters of the Convention of Aguascalientes; held in October-November 1914, which attempted to marginalize Carranza and assert its legitimacy in power following the ouster of Huerta in July 1914.

Term used for all Government troops from Mexican independence to 1914, but usually associated particularly with Victoriano Huerta's Federal Army. (Huerta was President from February 1913 to July 1914). The Federal Army was disbanded in August 1914 following Huerta's going into exile in the United States.

Adherents of Felix Diaz, nephew of former president Porfirio Díaz, who opposed both the Madero and Carranza governments in rebellions between 1913 and 1920, and led the reactionary conservative National Reorganizer Army in ineffective revolts late in the Revolution.
